Shoot at Assiette with Warren Turnbull

Mark and I filmed Warren Turnbull at Assiette yesterday for Sydney food TV, I should say Mark filmed it and I asked a few questions. Warren is a terrific guy and his team, really genuinely love him. He has some really passionate kitchen staff who are very keen to learn from this down to earth genius in the kitchen. I feel his ability to inspire his team is a large part of what makes his restaurant so successful. The hardest part about running a successful restaurant is definitely consistency and it is very important to get it right as much as possible. The secret to Warren's success is his ability to inspire his staff and to relate to them as a friend and a mentor, and in turn that rewards him with motivated staff that are all on the same page. The team he has built is as much a testimony to his good nature as it is to his hard work.
Today we shot the diners and some kitchen scenes at Salon Blanc down at Woolloomooloo wharf, it was a great day and we got some great shots after much hard work. The people there were a great help and very friendly. We do the interview next Wednesday.
